amsterdam528 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 This is one of my favorites from the album (maybe even 2nd favorite, but 42 and Yes and Cemeteries of London are all bouncing around in my top 3). When the heaviness comes in...I get shivers. Best album closer since Amsterdam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mryark Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I agree with the male chorus at the end of the song with the whole revenge thing...amazing...absolutely amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavipheus Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I thought i was the only one, I love the end with him singing about Death and all his friends, its amazing. Lyrics to the Escapist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BostonSportsTD Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 In the end we'll lie awake and dream of making our escape.... so FUCKING beautiful. literally like... between the male chorus and the escapist.. the ending to this album brings tears to my eyes.

MasoKnight Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 In the end we'll lie awake and dream of making our escape.... so FUCKING beautiful. literally like... between the male chorus and the escapist.. the ending to this album brings tears to my eyes. The Escapist really is brilliant. It's one of their shortest songs, and it's light on lyrics, but it's one of the most emotional things they've ever done, I think.

winigwl Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 the fix you thing doesn't really matter right now, but i'll gladly debate that another day. but this song daahf is fucking kickass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdldawn Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 DAAHF is possibly their greatest written song.. seriously.. it really is a brilliant moment in music. bravo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just_a_spy Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I thought it was a great twist that The Escapist turned out to be a version of Life in Technicolor. Of course I should've known! I'd already read way back that the same guy wrote them! I love the part in Death and All His Friends where the band just belts it out! "I don't wanna follow Death and all his friends!"

Coldplayer11 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 i love the song..i wished they could sing that chorus a bit more cause its so beautiful and i want to hear it over and over again.. its real uplifting for me :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hyperfried Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 DaAHF is, in my opinion, one of the greatest songs they've ever written, if not the greatest song. Just so beautiful and uplifting... ^^ I really like the Escapist, actually - it's a fitting end to a nice album - out similarly to the way it came, but even more dreamlike.

*Mike* Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I love this song, reminds me alot of Amsterdam and Fix You for some reason :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forcin Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 amazing song! I think this might be the closure for Viva La Vida Tour! If it IS the closing song, I'm glad I won't be able to attend any of the concerts, I'd be crying like a baby:cry:. It's SOOO beautiful and so moving.

Acer_NoDoubter Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I don't know if this has been discussed before, but is the beginning of the song like that or does it has like an intro or something, because Cedric's version starts like in the middle of a sentence, could someone explain that??

jc90 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 All winter we got carried Away over on the rooftops Lets get married All summer we just hurried So come over just be patient And don’t worry So come over, just be patient And don’t worry So come over, just be patient and don’t worry And don’t worry No I don’t want a battle from the intuit I don’t wanna cycle, recycle revenge I don’t wanna follow death and all his friends No I don’t want a battle from the intuit I don’t wanna cycle, recycle revenge I don’t wanna follow death and all his friends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyduckette Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I agree, the end of death and all his friends is so moving, standing-up-for-your-beliefs kinda thing... its great. and it's totally grown on me. :uhoh: if that makes sense. It feel like they really mean it, in that chorus bit. beautiful!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
